11. There are some who honestly believe that they must "destroy the party to rebuild it"...

There are some who honestly believe that they must "destroy the party to rebuild it" and I believe that this may be part of the plan. It's very Sarandonesque. Anyone who pays attention to the "Justice Democrats" and "Our Revolution" and "BNC" (and anyone who's associated with Cenk Uygur) it's very obvious that there's no love-lost for the Democratic party and in the name of purity (or what they think passes as purity) they're willing to cripple, hobble and/or "destroy" the party in order to remake/rebuild it.

Even if it means four more years of Trump. Even if people suffer.

It's what Susan Sarandon wanted. Just LOOK at how giddy and animated she is...
... she can barely contain her excitement at the horrors that await us.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
